Narrative:
I was working sector on opposite side of radar room; and saw 2 aircraft depart off the parallel runways on my radar scope. I was displaying 'limited' data on them but could see that they were both 'RNAV' equipment; and assumed they were both on RNAV departures. The B757 was a 'buckl' RNAV departed runway 18L first; then air carrier Y (an E135; I believe) departed runway 18R. It appeared; from watching his track that he was not on the RNAV departure and drifted east into the wake/departure path of the B757. I'm pretty certain the conflict alert went off.

Title: CLT Controller working adjacent sector observed what was believed to be a loss of separation with departures from parallel Runways 18L/18R.
Narrative: I was working sector on opposite side of radar room; and saw 2 aircraft depart off the parallel runways on my radar scope. I was displaying 'limited' data on them but could see that they were both 'RNAV' equipment; and assumed they were both on RNAV departures. The B757 was a 'BUCKL' RNAV departed Runway 18L first; then Air Carrier Y (an E135; I believe) departed Runway 18R. It appeared; from watching his track that he was not on the RNAV Departure and drifted east into the wake/departure path of the B757. I'm pretty certain the Conflict Alert went off.
